plumbing issues marred the stay
the breakfast was acceptable.
the plumbing was terribly noisy. i could hear every time someone used their bathroom, it was very disruptive. i even got out of bed once to check my own bathroom because the noise was so loud (honestly, it was a terrible experience).

A charming stay
delicious breakfast off-street parking harbor walk
Breakfast was delicious. The staff served a great variety of options. The off-street parking was very convenient. It made coming and going so easy. The walk to the harbor took only a few minutes (i liked that).
The plumbing system made loud noises throughout the night, it disturbed my sleep.
